Yeah, I Know

June 16, 2008 by WendyB

My site is down. I did a security upgrade to it, and the charming fuckers at GoDaddy didn’t tell me in advance that it would shut me down for “15 minutes to 72 hours.” Thanks for nothing, guys! UPDATED TO ADD: It’s back! It took several hours, but at least it wasn’t 72 hours.

I’d Like to Thank the Little People

June 13, 2008 by WendyB

I’d like to thank the little people — the dwarfs AND the midgets — who helped me on my way to the top. Now that I’ve won this prestigious award, I promise I won’t change a bit except for the fact that I won’t return your calls and I’m only going to hang out with…

The News of the Day

June 5, 2008 by WendyB

I was really feeling the love for New York today thanks to a nauseating ride with a horn-honking, cursing cabbie who seemed to be belatedly auditioning for a role in Grand Theft Auto IV. In fact, the experience was so much like Grand Theft Auto that I decided to shoot my driver instead of paying…

I Thought I Looked Purrfect

May 20, 2008 by WendyB

Well, it turns out WWD didn’t think I was a hot pussy in my vintage Patrick Kelly dress! I never expected the average person to appreciate that drag-a-licious gown, but being on a “Disaster Area” page next to Susan Sarandon exceeded my wildest hopes and dreams. Mee-Wow!(That WAS a very tight dress and not a…

Hot Links

May 19, 2008 by WendyB

I’ve got something for everyone today. For bloggers who have gotten nasty comments: Gala Darling’s helpful post on dealing with negativity. (By the way, does everyone know that Val from Life of a Valley Girl has shut down her blog due to stalking?) For latex-loving pervs and fashionistas: Eli at Thrift Eye has got shiny…

Ugly Captcha of the Day

May 17, 2008 by WendyB

I guessed right. It IS a “W” on the end. My initial choice was two upside-down “A’s” but I couldn’t find those on my keyboard.

If Wishes Were Horses, Beggars Would Ride

May 13, 2008 by WendyB

I wish I could un-read the story Miranda Purves wrote about her vagina for the June 2008 issue of Elle. I especially wish I could un-read this sentence: “His hand crept between my legs and he poked in a tentative finger.” You see, Miranda is feline a bit stretched-out. But some men appreciate a big…

Weirdly Specific Search Term of the Day

May 8, 2008 by WendyB

The weirdly specific search term of the day is: “how much does it cost to buy a rose online and have it delivered to your grandmother.” It would be amusing if the cost of flowers depended on the identity of the recipient. You could send a dozen roses to Mom for $29.99, but Grandma would…

Going to Hell?

April 28, 2008 by WendyB

If so, you’ll probably meet the financial office employees from M.D. Anderson Cancer Center there. They’ll be the ones charging you a fortune to enter the flames. Once you get in the door, you’ll meet the Blogger folks who decided that captchas needed to be totally illegible. I can barely read any of the captchas…
